Use the NI-SCOPE 5110 Ext Cal VIs to perform external calibration of the DC reference and compensated attenuator on the PXIe-5111.

Open Ext Cal Session VI
Opens an external calibration session for the specified device.
Close Ext Cal Session VI
Closes the external calibration session. You can choose to either commit or disregard the results of the calibration session.
Utilities
External calibration utilities for the PXIe-5113.
DC Reference Cal Initialize VI
Prepares the oscilloscope for adjusting the DC reference on the channel that you specify.
DC Reference Cal Configure VI
Configures the oscilloscope for the next DC reference calibration test point and waits for the oscilloscope to settle.
DC Reference Cal Adjust VI
Measures the input voltage on the specified channel, compares it with the actual voltage generated, performs an adjustment, and computes the calibration coefficients.
Compensated Attenuator Cal Initialize VI
Prepares the oscilloscope for adjusting the compensated attenuator on the channel you specify.
Compensated Attenuator Cal Configure VI
Configures the oscilloscope for the next compensated attenuator calibration test point and waits for the oscilloscope to settle.
Compensated Attenuator Cal Adjust VI
Acquires the square waveform on the specified channel, calculates flatness error, performs an adjustment, and computes the calibration coefficients.
Get Misc Info VI
Returns the text information set by the Set Misc Info VI of this library.
Set Misc Info VI
Stores custom text information that is stored until you close the current calibration session. You can choose to commit this information to the device when you close the calibration session.
Get Adjustment Date And Temperature VI
Returns the date of the last successful external calibration and the onboard temperature, in degrees Celsius, of the device at the time of that calibration.
